    Ooooooh, tempting... be nice to play Battlefield Vietnam on a 70" TV... on the other hand, when I'm driving in Colorado the turbo would be sweet (when I drove through Vail last July my poor '01 really had a hard time). And when driving in Stillwater, and Tulsa, and Dallas.....

    Sure, the TV would be great, but prices on those will keep going down, and more and more shows will be HDTV.

    All I have is a 25" TV, ancient mono thing without even RCA jacks-- and I'd still get the turbo.

    a 70"? that's almost too big for an average sized living room. I'm guessing it's a projection? If you pick the tv, might as well make it something worth while like a good plasma tv. If you want something that big, why not a projector? they're a lot cheaper than a big tv and they can handle HDTV inputs.

    Well i was going to boost my corolla, and possibly still might be. However, walked my bored ass into SoundTrak the other day and now im considering buying a 70" HDTV instead. So i cant make up my mind now which to do. If I was sure that after installing the turbo there wouldn't be any more major expenses, but i just know im going to have to do some upgrading/repairs after the turbo install. any comments or suggestions?

    that's like comparing apples and oranges...heh.

    the question is, which do YOU want more? frankly, i'd go for the TV...but that's just me.

    yah, what will you get more enjoyment out of? they both have the ups and downs. not all shows are in HDTV, and ur most likely gunna have to upgrade somthing later down the road if u boost. just go compare and see whatcha want more

    Well, I would go for the turbo, you already have a tv? Yeah probably. Most likely you saw the tv and wanted it, that would be an impulse buy if you got it. But the turbo would be a lot more fun. Anyways, the tv, theres not many channels that are hdtv and the ones that are arent very cheap.

    come drive my car blok... then decide what ya want more...

    the TV you can actually see right now, but you've never seen what you car can do boosted... *shrug* just my way of offering a fair comparison for ya. :)

    (hehe a 70" HDTV is a hard thing to pass up tho, lol) (do keep in mind that will go down in cost the more ya wait, the turbo stuff will prolly stay around the same cost)
